Multi-Detector Wipe Test Counter · Nuclear Medicine

Multi-Wiper™

The world’s first gamma counter designed specifically for the Nuclear Medicine Department. Counts up to 10 wipes simultaneously, with AutoSpect™ DPM from a single calibration source. Cuts a 40-minute weekly wipe survey down to 4 minutes — and pays for itself in the patient procedures it frees up time to run.

  • 2–10Detector wells
  • Up to 1MeVEnergy range
  • 0.85"Lead shielding
  • 300k cpsCount rate capability
  • <30WPower draw

The same chassis platform we’ve been refining since 1985 — engineered, assembled, and serviced under one roof.

Why the Multi-Wiper matters

The Multi-Wiper pays for itself in patient procedures.

36 minutes of weekly technologist time is one extra thyroid uptake every week, or roughly $120,000 of recovered patient-procedure revenue over five years. Plug in your department’s actual numbers and see what the savings look like for you.

Productivity & Cost Calculator

See exactly how fast a Multi-Wiper™ pays for itself.

Enter your weekly wipe-test load and a few cost assumptions. We’ll show you the labor time you’ll get back, how quickly the instrument pays for itself, and the additional revenue your freed-up technician time can generate every year after that.

Your assumptions

Every field is pre-filled with U.S. national averages. Adjust to match your facility.

Fixed assumption: a single‑well counter takes 60 seconds (1 minute) per wipe. The Multi‑Wiper finishes the same batch in 60 seconds total because every well counts in parallel. If your typical count time is longer (low‑activity QC wipes can run 2–10 minutes), the savings shown below are conservative.
Pick the model that matches your throughput. Pricing handled at quote.
wipes
Daily wipe-test count, averaged across your survey schedule.
days/wk
5 days for a typical clinical Mon–Fri schedule. Most nuclear pharmacies, infusion centers, and 24/7 hospitals run 7 days — that nearly doubles the annual savings.
$ /hr
Default: U.S. nuclear medicine technologist national average (BLS 2024).
$ /procedure
National average revenue per nuclear medicine procedure (includes bone scans, cardiac studies, PET scans, etc. Varies significantly by test type).
%
Not all freed-up technologist time converts to billable procedures. The default (50%) is a realistic estimate; raise or lower it to match how your department absorbs additional capacity.

Your results

Recalculates as you type. All figures in U.S. dollars.

Labor time saved hrs/yr — hrs/month
Payback period months labor savings + freed-hour revenue
Annual labor savings $ technologist time you stop spending on manual wiping
Annual added revenue $ from billable procedures the freed technologist hours can support
Total additional value per year, after payoff $
That’s the combined labor savings plus revenue from freed-up technologist time, every year, for the life of the instrument.

Show me the math — how these numbers are calculated

Every line below uses the inputs you entered above. Change any input and these numbers update.

  1. Step 1 — Time spent counting on a single‑well counter Wipes × days/week × 60 sec each, then expanded to a year.
  2. Step 2 — Time on the Multi‑Wiper (wells run in parallel) Same workload, divided by the number of wells.
  3. Step 3 — Technologist hours saved every year Step 1 minus Step 2.
  4. Step 4 — Annual labor savings Hours saved × technologist hourly rate.
  5. Step 5 — Hours that convert to billable procedures Hours saved × the billable‑percent slider. Not every freed hour gets booked — this slider tells the calculator how realistic to be.
  6. Step 6 — Annual added revenue Billable hours × revenue per procedure (assumes one procedure per freed hour).
  7. Step 7 — Total monthly value the Multi‑Wiper produces Labor savings + added revenue, divided by 12 months. This is the number that drives payback — the labor line alone is typically modest; the added‑revenue line does most of the lifting.
  8. Step 8 — Payback period List price ÷ monthly value = months until the instrument has paid for itself.

These are estimates based on average pricing. Final numbers depend on quoted price. Methodology: a single‑well counter is assumed to take 60 seconds per wipe. The Multi‑Wiper completes the same batch in 60 seconds because every well counts in parallel. Annual figures use 52 weeks ÷ 12 months. The "percent of saved time used for billable procedures" slider controls how much of the freed time converts to additional revenue, with one procedure billed per converted hour. Adjust the inputs above to match your facility.
